Ezekiel 22:18-20

Context
22:18 “Son of man, the house of Israel has become slag to me. All of them are like bronze, tin, iron, and lead in the furnace;¹ they are the worthless slag of silver. 22:19 Therefore this is what the sovereign Lord says: ‘Because all of you² have become slag, look out! – I am about to gather you in the middle of Jerusalem.³ 22:20 As silver, bronze, iron, lead, and tin are gathered in a furnace so that the fire can melt them, so I will gather you in my anger and in my rage. I will deposit you there⁴ and melt you.

¹tn For similar imagery, see Isa 1:21-26; Jer 6:27-30.

²tn The Hebrew second person pronoun is masculine plural here and in vv. 19b-21, indicating that the people are being addressed.

³map For location see Map5 B1; Map6 F3; Map7 E2; Map8 F2; Map10 B3; JP1 F4; JP2 F4; JP3 F4; JP4 F4.

⁴tn Heb “I will put.” No object is supplied in the Hebrew, prompting many to emend the text to “I will blow.” See BHS and verse 21.
